Description

Read the poem ‘Mala Strana’ from the collection below:

 

Having no other gift, I gave you – a morning.

I gave you the burnt-gold leaves along the Vltava,

An icebound street near the Old Town Square.

The little cafe in the Mala Strana

Where we stood,

The song of the hurdy-gurdy on the Karluv Most

I gave you the houses of the Golden Lane,

The shape of the churches on the skyline.

The city, framed in a moment –

As a memory to hang forever in our minds.

And Prague pressed us into its embrace,

Firmly and beautifully,

Before we parted.
